I have a 2007 MX-5 Roadster and love it...For those of you wanting one, it's a fun car and it's fun to drive!

Replying to: hercules1 (Aug 21, 2007 6:20 pm) Call me, I can order one for you! j/k...not allowed to do that here...but, seriously, dealer allocations are slim once again, and once allocations are filled, we have to wait for the chance to order again. That might be the problem that you are running into.
#9 of 529 Seats that fit by m1miata Sep 01, 2007 (8:50 pm)
Anyone know of a larger seat for 2008? I have emailed Mazda, but this is the long weekend, so I doubt a reply back anytime soon, unless they are working without holiday. Which is possible. Haven't a clue where the email goes to. Anyway, the current seats are too narrow.

Replying to: m1miata (Sep 01, 2007 8:50 pm) Same seat. Only difference is you can adjust the height. Replies to this message: harryhoffner (Sep 03, 2007 4:02 pm) ateixeira (Sep 04, 2007 8:24 am)

Replying to: aviboy97 (Sep 03, 2007 11:36 am) I'm glad to see that. But I sure wish the passenger seat also would have height adjustment. My wife won't let me buy a MX-5, because she says the seat is too low. And I don't plan to let her do all the driving! Replies to this message: ateixeira (Sep 04, 2007 8:24 am)

Replying to: hercules1 (Aug 21, 2007 6:20 pm) Ordering one of these cars is not for the faint of heart. You have to be someone who can sit quietly and wait. If you try to ask for a status, you will either go no information or wrong information. I've been waiting since April and I have two more months to go. I could write a book detailing the hassle I've experienced. And I'm not alone. Mazda allocates these cars quarterly and that's all we know for certain. Best of luck to those who've ordered. Sit tight.

Replying to: gputz (Sep 03, 2007 6:28 pm) You are right about the allocation method. We have only had 2 allocations, and only been allowed to order 3 in each. One came in and has been delivered. Out of the other 5, 3 are already sold. If you plan to order one, you have to wait for the next allocation for that dealer, which may be a month or more from when you left your deposit with the dealer. I know this sucks, but, it is what it is.

Replying to: m1miata (Sep 01, 2007 8:50 pm) I agree with you on the seats being narrow!

Replying to: harryhoffner (Sep 03, 2007 4:02 pm) I'm sure you could put in a spacer, or have a metal shop fabricate a taller bracket. I have spacers on the front of my 93's seat track, to raise the front of the seat and give me some thigh support. It's a small change, though, maybe 3/8".

Replying to: gputz (Sep 03, 2007 6:28 pm) What kind of hassles have you experienced? Did your dealer enter the order directly into Mazda (via computer) while you were present? It's sounding like dealers are making promises they aren't keeping, i.e. saying they have been allocated a PRHT, but maybe ordering a few months later?
